About

The artist

Amy Jo Johnson is a Toronto-based singer-songwriter, actor, writer, and director with United States and Canadian citizenship. She began releasing music with The Trans-American Treatment in 2001, followed by Imperfect in 2005 and Never Broken in 2013. Her acoustic folk rock writing has often crossed into screen work: Puddle of Grace appeared through her role on Felicity, songs including Dancing In-Between and Goodbye were heard on Flashpoint, and later compositions accompanied her short films and feature work. In 2024 she returned to recording with Fly by Fairytales, Sunlit, and Still Here. Johnson describes Still Here as a song first drafted during a period of grief in 1999 and completed after later losses, while Sunlit focuses on perseverance and perspective. Her current Directors Guild of Canada profile identifies her with Ontario, and the public identity registry and established residence sources identify Toronto. The exact Spotify and Apple Music profiles match her official site's catalog without an artist collision.
